For me it was finding a project I really wanted to work on and sort of following the rabbit hole to figure out how to make it.

If you're starting out completely new and are interested in web dev, the path I took was HTML > CSS > JavaScript (just the logic side)> Javascript (with the DOM) > jQuery > PHP/Node > Angular/React.

It probably took me a year from when I first started learning to landing my first job. And I really recommend having a good grasp of each of those steps before moving on to the next. Youtube has a bunch of tutorials and they're all pretty great for learning the basics. Anything more specific you can find by looking at the docs or Stackoverflow.

It's a really fun journey and it always feels more daunting than it actually is until you have something working on the screen.

I have a full-time job, so I was only able to work on this sporadically over the span of a year and a bit. Maybe like a few weeks at a time every few months. Sorry if that's not specific enough.

1. I think my career goal is to do my own thing, hopefully that being making games.
2. I have definitely considered going back to school to do a CS degree. Not because I think it would help that much in my career at this point, but because I'm genuinely interested in CS.
3. I would love to make games for a living. But I don't think I would want to work as a game dev for someone else or a big company. I've heard it's a very stressful job.
4. Planning on trying out Unity for the next game I work on!
5. Haha yes :) I'm constantly learning new things at work. This profession requires it. Already work with Typescript/Angular in my current job.

Honestly, that's exactly how I was hoping it would be taken. This asshole triangle that's stepping over his friends and family to try to get ahead. When you die there are blurbs of text that appear from the shapes that point out how he should just be happy with who he is and that there's nothing wrong with being a triangle. And when you finally get to circle, everyone becomes your enemy and you have to avoid all the shapes.

This might be an unpopular opinion, but I really love Javascript. There are so many frameworks and libraries that let you do so many crazy things with it so easily (Angular, Phaser, Matter, D3). And it's perfect for all skills levels and requires very little setup.
